There was a lot to celebrate today and a standing room only crowd of proud family members came out to see their favorite students recognized for their good efforts at school. Academics were the first area covered today. Last spring the MAP test (Measure of Academic Progress) was given to students who are now in 4th and 5th grades. Students who had achieved the rank of proficient or advanced in the areas of math and language skills received awards. Students who received and advanced ranking (the highest possible) in one area received awards and finally, the group of students who achieved advanced in both areas received their awards. The MAP testing process requires lots of effort and focus from these youngsters and they should all be very proud of their accomplishments.
